Which is why sane people remap [Caps Lock] to be another [Ctrl].
For Emacs on Windows [Win2K-SP4, WinXP-SP3, Vista-SP2, Win7-SP1]:
Details:
<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897578.aspx>
Program:
<http://download.sysinternals.com/Files/Ctrl2Cap.zip>
For *BSD, Linux, Solaris and UNIX systems, use xkeycaps to create an
input file for xmodmap [xmodmap is part of all X distributions]:
xkeycaps: <http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/>
or use the user preferences [depending on the distro or desktop] to
make the [Caps Lock] be another [Ctrl].
